With the preceding preparations, direct sound is executed as follows.
Direct Sound Execution
1.
When the specified timer overflows due to a count up, the audio data are passed
from the FIFO to the sound circuit.
2. If 4 words of data remain in the FIFO as the transfer count progresses, the FIFOs
for direct sounds A and B output a data transfer request to the specified DMA
channel.
3. If the DMA channel receiving the request is in sound FIFO transfer mode, 4 words
of data are provided to the sound FIFO (the DMA WORD COUNT is ignored).
The preceding is repeated starting from 1.
